In the example below, Tokens are displayed as text highlighted in grey and
are displaying keywords for the Sample ID and the cytometer used for data collection:

Tokens can also be dynamically incorporated into a plot, with or without freetext. The histogram
below is displaying
the percent of cells in M1 as a token.

With the Clinical Version of FCS Express, tokens can utilize classifiers to display text based on another token
and to trigger other options such as displaying a page in the layout. Visit the Clinical Tokens webpage for more details on these features.

Drag and Drop Tokens from Anywhere in the Layout

Tokens can be added to a statistics table or text box by dragging and dropping the token of interest. Navigators also allow the user to insert tokens from samples and data that is pages away.
In the example below:

A simple table was inserted on page 3 of the layout (Figure 1).

Plot 6 on page 1 was then dragged and dropped from the Layout Navigator into each column of the table (Figure 2).

The Paste Special dialog opens automatically and tokens were chosen to insert in the table (Figure 2).

The final product can be seen in in Figure 3.

Figure 1 - Text box table from page 3 of the layout.

Figure 2 - Plot 6 from page 1 was dragged and dropped via the Layout Navigator into the table on page 3.

Custom Tokens

Custom Tokens contain user-defined combinations of tokens and text to
create custom statistics. The custom combinations are created using
mathematical calculations and/or functional operators to define the
Custom Token formula. These formulas can contain any token including
Statistic tokens, Keyword tokens, or even other Custom Tokens. Once
defined, Custom Tokens are inserted into text boxes the same way other
tokens are inserted. During data analysis, the Custom Token formula is
evaluated by FCS Express and the result is displayed or returned to the
text box containing the Custom Token. With Custom Token formulas you
can:

Create mathematical expressions to combine tokens and/or text.

Create conditional statements using IF..THEN..ELSE qualifiers.

Convert a string of numeric values into a text result such as
Positive or Negative.

In the example below a custom token is displayed in the "Average # of
Events" text box. The custom token formula is defined as the sum of the number of
events found the whole cells gate for each sample, divided by 3.
